Solution

  • Let me explain how to implement your requirement.

    As like @mark said, just save the data in your controller

    $this->{YourModel}->save($this->request->data);

    Here $this->request->data contains your post data.

    To display the post_text in your view just put the strings in h() function to escape html characters

    h($yourvariable['ModelName']['post_text'])
